The big issue was that this was dropped unannounced into a mature, vibrant, thriving modding community in a game and game series well-known for its mod-friendly environment and ability to generate huge amounts of high-quality content all on its own. Skyrim mods didn't need any help. Top it off...

What Kid R said. Generally, once you learn optimal city placement, expansion rate, and diplomacy, you've got the ground mechanics and can go from there. As a rule of thumb, if you can play random leaders on fractal maps and win a large percentage of your games, you're ready to move up in...

Sorry, I didn't mean Julius, I meant It's been a while since I've played so I'm not sure if he's normally aggressive. Anyway, on this playthrough I'm staying on his good side and going to war when he asks.

Bad news in my game.

First NC game in a long time. Been playing a lot of Europa Universalis, but I got tired of committing genocide against natives. Prince/Standard/No huts or events. to 1200 BC

I have major problems with Wu Zetian. She's speaking modern Mandarin, but should probably be speaking some kind of Middle Chinese classical.

I frequently roleplay in Skyrim and Morrowind. Pretty straightforward. Europa Universalis IV is great for creating your own rules, given that there are no real victory conditions. Some fun, non-achievement goals I've accomplished recently: -Invade Europe as Ming before 1500 -Colonize across...

The Morrowind Overhaul for TES3: Morrowind. Makes the game gorgeous and has a ton of optional gameplay mods as well.

I'm pretty sure Three Mountains is only achievable with exploits and bugs. It appropriately honors DDRJake

DDRJake is attempting his second World Conquest as the tiny Okinawan kingdom Ryukyu. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm0MDLKuRDrlp18FY6VyF5OdUCAKBv7IO For those who are unfamiliar with DDRJake, he's the guy who conquered the world as Ryukyu back in EU3. As a nod to his incredible...

When you roll a new general (or admiral, conquistador, etc.) his stats are rolled, with higher army/navy tradition contributing to higher stats. Then the +1 leader stats from ideas are added. AFAIK every stat can reach 6, but 6 siege is super rare.

1.6 just hit. My experience so far...

Looks like Wealth of Nations, the next DLC/xpac, launches next week for the very reasonable preorder price of $10. It comes alongside patch 1.6, which overhauls a LOT of game systems. The biggest ones (I think) are the unit rebalancing efforts and conquest changes...

I was at the announcement panel and the panelists definitely hinted at something apocalyptic. Humanity apparently had to "get back on its feet" after the Great Mistake. They also hinted that it was probably some sort of nuclear exchange in Asia.

I agree with GAGA. My friends and I have played one MMO after another. WoW is our home but it's grown stale over the years (and the PvP is god awful). Guild Wars 2 is great, but I needed a break from it. This time we're going to play ESO for the experience, not to rush to max level to get to...
